Lyrics

You can (F)dance

ev ’ry dance with the one that gives you the eye; let him (C)hold you tight.

You can smile

ev ’ry smile for the one that holds your hand in the (F)pale moon light.

Just (C7)don’t (F7)for (Bb)get who’s tak ing you home and in whose arms you’re (F)gon na be.

So (C)dar lin’,

save the (C7)last

dance for (F)me.

Oh, I (F)know

that the mu sic is fine, like spark ling wine; eye; go and (C)have your fun.

Laugh and sing,

but while we’re a part, one don’t give your heart to the (F)an y one.

Just (C7)don’t (F7)for (Bb)get who’s tak ing you home and in whose arms you’re (F)gon na be.

So (C)dar lin’,

save the (C7)last

dance for (F)me.

Oh, I (F)me.

Ba by, don’t you know I (C)love you so?

Can’t you feel it when you (F)touch?

I will nev er, nev er (C7)let you go.

I love you, oh, so (F)much.

You can dance,

go and car ry on till the night is gone, till it’s (C7)time to go.

If he asks

if you’re all a lone, can he take you home, you’ve got to (F)tell him no.

’Cause (C7)don’t (F7)for (Bb)get who’s tak ing you home and in whose arms you’re (F)gon na be.

So (C)dar lin’,

save the (C7)last dance for (F)me.

You can dance,

go and car ry on till the night is gone, till it’s (C7)time to go.

If he asks

if you’re all a lone, can he take you home, you’ve got to (F)tell him no.

’Cause (C7)don’t (F7)for (Bb)get who’s tak ing you home and in whose arms you’re (F)gon na be.

So (C)dar lin’,

save the (C7)last dance for (F)me.

You can (F)me.
